Today saw a landmark on my Flickr account with the total number of hits reaching the 100,000 mark. Average daily hits now seems to be in the region of 250-350 where just a year ago it was around 20-30 daily. The strange anomaly is that I have not posted anything new to the site for…
I have corresponded with Piet Grobler for many years now on the Flickr website, both of us commenting on one another’s photos. As Piet lives close to Kruger park we arranged to meet and shared stories and experiences over coffee at Letaba. Piet is a real gent and I am really pleased that we managed…
Well, I’ve just passed 35000 views of my photostream photos and sets on Flickr. Whilst it might not sound too impressive, that’s 35000 more than if I had not posted them & we take ’em to share ’em don’t we?
I’m starting to think about what to shoot (photographically that is!) this year & where to do it, my list looks like this so far: Red Kites at Gigrin Farm http://www.gigrin.co.uk Puffins at either Bempton Cliffs, Skomer Island or the Farne Islands http://www.welshwildlife.org/skomerIntro_en.link Kruger NP, South Africa http://www.sanparks.org/parks/kruger Seals at Donna Nook http://www.wildsight.co.uk/articles/donna-nook.html City Night…

I’ve wanted to do this for years & this time got everything booked only to suffer a serious knee injury (cruciate ligament, cartilage…) that has prevented me going 😦 😦…
It’s been a great week of photo opportunities; the stags rutting, the autumn colours & a flock of waxwings descending on trees close to home. Should have had some great photos but no, the dodgy knee has kept me firmly indoors this week & struggling for inspiration. I need to find some still-life opportunities somewhere.
